CONTROLS AND OPERATION
This unit has a hybrid control panel with knobs for adjustment and a digital display to
monitor humidity and fan settings.
1. Plug cord into wall receptacle. Your humidifier is now ready for use.
2. Push in on the Power (lower) knob to turn the unit on.
FAN SPEED
3. Rotate the fan speed knob
clockwise to increase the fan
speed. The speed settings will
be shown on the LED display.
NOTE: When excessive
condensation exists, a lower
speed setting is recommended.
HUMIDITY CONTROL
NOTE: Allow 10 to 15 minutes for the
humidistat to adjust to the room when
setting up the unit for the first time.
NOTE: This model has an
adjustable humidistat with settings
from 25-65%. The humidistat will
turn the humidifier on when the humidity in your home is below the humidistat setting
and will turn the humidifier off when the humidity reaches the humidistat setting.
When set at 65%, the humidifier will operate continuously.
4. For initial operation, set the humidity knob at a midpoint
setting (45-50% is recommended) and adjust up or down
from there to achieve the desired humidity level. The digital
display will show the desired setting momentarily, and then
revert to displaying the actual humidity.
CONTROL PANEL DISPLAYS:
Several functions of the humidifier can be monitored through the LED display on the
control panel.
REFILL INDICATION:
5. One bottle is designed to empty first. The letter F on the
display indicates when the unit is entirely out of water.
The motor will cut off at this point.
FILTER INDICATION:
The filter’s condition is critical to the humidifier’s effectiveness. A check filter
function (CF) will display every 720 hours of operation to remind the user to
check the condition of the wick. Water condition significantly affects the life
of a wick, so replacement of wick may be required more often if hard water
conditions exist.
